Man Caught With Stun Guns at New York Airport

NEW YORK – A passenger at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport was caught trying to board a plane with two stun guns stashed in his luggage -- just two days after a stun gun was found on a JetBlue plane that had landed at Newark Airport, The New York Post reported Tuesday.

The latest incident -- which appeared to be unrelated to the first -- occurred shortly after 9:00 p.m. local time Sunday in the airport's Terminal One, sources said.

Othon Mourkakos, 53, a restaurateur from Alpine, N.J., was busted as he waited to catch a Lufthansa Airlines flight for Frankfurt, Germany, according to sources.
